Do the companies track for the job applications for another company by their employees ? |
Do the companies track for the job applications for another company by their employees ( by personal email ids like yahoo, gmail)? Do they take action for this? You mean if they check if the employed is trying to get jobs at other companies whilst employed at the current company? That is illegal if a company does so. You merely work for the current company and are, at most, on a contract that you would have to finish until you take up the new position. Otherwise you can apply at other companies. The other company will check your former working record, however. If an employee does two employments simultaneously, it is an offence unless it is agreed by the company where he/she is working. Tracking of job applications is objectionable. But before emplying somebody, the company may cross-check with the previous employer, but this also is not a good practise ! self I agree to the prvious post but at the same time it is ILLEGAL to look for work during work. One section of my contract says - and Im sure you have a similar one: "You will devote thoe whole of your working time, attention and abilities to the business". So what you do from home is your business - but looking for work, using the equipment provided by the company and the time they pay you for to look for work is a gross misconduct. They will be able to fire you on those grounds, reclaim money from you and worst of all ... not provide you with a satisfying reference for your next job. FJ Not sure what State or country you are in. But in the U.S. any mails that are received or sent from your company computer is the property of the company. The Privacy Act does not protect the employee under this circumstance. Depending on the organization they could fire you. Human Resources 15 years Very unlikely. But if all of a sudden, you have to leave for lunch early,or want to come in an hour late for"personal reasons" it becomes obvious what you are doing. At a place where I once worked, if an employee was late, we'd all ask, "did you get the job." |
